Catalog industry evictions in Atlanta
Posted by Bret, volunteer in Atlanta on April 25th, 2007 |
We had skits,
several people showed up... it was a successful action in Atlanta... We
definitely got the manger's attention. We put ‘Attention J Crew and
Eddie Bauer’ fliers all over the store. Eddie was a little bit harder.
The managers responded in an ‘I am trying to be nice but get the hell
out of my store’ for J Crew.. at Eddie they were just mean.
We gave them an eviction notice and put banners up with the eviction
notice on it as well. Thanks Linda for coming out, you inspired my
group to become forest warriors. I am so proud of them.

If only catalog companies and the retailers that use them would at least, limit themselves to one or two catalogs per year, thousands of acres of trees could be saved in addition to saving the backs of our mail carriers and the hours of time I spend getting rid of them! Do you know that if you contact a company and ask them to stop sending catalogs, they do not stop permanently? After a few months, they resume sending them! During Christmas season, I have received at least one catalog per week from each company! Man, that's a lot of trees!
